Perhaps baroness Mone can pay some back

Billions went to crony contracts during the pandemic, and Labour said they were going to investigate and get the money back. £450bn was squandered. If £22bn is really missing then it also needs to be investigated. All of it needs investigating by the police. But most likely none of it will because it's easier to keep fleecing the taxpayer.

If there is an alleged 22 billion pound missing then the problem is double that is missing and by my logic,first is the missing 22 billion pounds secondly the department involved are asking the population to make up the alleged  shortfall so by my maths in theory we are expected to reimburse another 22 billion pounds should be an investigation by the police urgent. where is the truth?

The national debt is £2825bn. It dwarfs the £22bn Rachel from accounts keeps going on about. https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/governmentpublicsectorandtaxes/publicsectorfinance/timeseries/hf6w/pusf The government spends over £1200bn a year. The shortfall in tax receipts means £127bn will be added to the national debt this financial year. ...

What I don't understand is why all our governments are happy to keep piling it on national debt. ...

This has been mentioned many times it is alleged that £22 billion pounds is now gone missing which no one knew about and been a surprise to most. Well if this is allegedly so, and after all it is its the peoples money.Where is the money? Where is it?.Should the police investigate the situation?

I can't stand our politicians, they are not our leaders / guardians, THEY ARE OUR ENEMIES.

A GARDENING charity in Dawlish has been forced to close today following reports of a fire. Dawlish Gardens Trust in Port Road announced it has had to shut ‘due to unforseen circumstances’. A spokesman said: ‘Everything is under control and we will keep you all updated.

Turns out the climate emergency was just a scam after all. "Government backs Heathrow expansion to kickstart economic growth" https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-backs-heathrow-expansion-to-kickstart-economic-growth Labour have lost all credibility. They are just winging it now.
